At the other hand, I would want everybody to realize that if we say:
..., but pure text is still welcome, with hand-conversion
by the editor staff.
that that means a SERIOUS cost.
right. that is why we should have moved to an automated submission process
long ago.
the issue, now, is transition. we need to make the change in a way that
does not impose traumatic effect on existing practise. therefore we have to
continue to accept free-text drafts.
at some point, in the future, we can consider ending this practise.
